Re: Speaking of stress dosing

[Guest guest]

After stress-dosing on and off for the past week (traveling, in-laws,

thyroid dumping, etc), I have ONE more dentist appt tomorrow to simply

replace the temporary filling from my recent root canal with a

permanent one and to correct my bite which has shifted now that the

tooth is stable. I don't know that I will even need novocaine. I

would rather not stress dose since I am trying to stay with a dose now

so that the adrenals can settle down. Should I do it anyway tomorrow

anyway or wait and see how I feel - I know that if I wait until I'm

stressed that I'll burn whatever cortisol I have and it will be too

late. Maybe just an extra 5mg with my 10mg first thing in the AM dose

- the appt is at 7AM.

Thanks,

> I like to use this as a guide. If oyu have to stress dose more than

once every week you need more HC. Needing to stress dose menas you are

using those reserves too fast and wioll never build any.

I didn't but there were no needles - just some grinding and a little

discomfort. The rest of the morning had already been going horribly

and it has just continued from there so I could have used that stress

dose, dentist or not. Leads me to another question, my usual dosing

schedule starts at around 8AM and ends with my bed-time dose. B/c of

that early appt today, I took my first dose of HC at like 6:45 and I

needed another at 10:30 so I took it, which puts me ahead of schedule

for the rest of the day. My third dose will end up being at around

2:30 and I'll never make it to bed-time for my last dose. On days

like that, do I sneak a small dose in at like 6PM, 2.5 or 5mg? I'm

assuming that it's not a good idea to delay the AM dose to keep on

schedule.

Thanks,

Thanks, I've been paying very close attention right around the 3 1/2

to 4 hour mark and I can make it most of the time, but making it 8

hours is too much.
